Chapter 2.8, Problem 1P
Table 2.3 breaks down the number of major jobs or activities involved in painting a two-story house.
- a. Develop a CPM network.
- b. Determine the critical path of the network.
- c. Determine the expected project’s duration time period.
Table 2.3: Problem 1
(a)
Expert Solution
To determine
A CPM network.
Explanation of Solution
The CPM network for the data given in the Table 2.3 is shown below:
(b)
Expert Solution
To determine
The critical path of the network.
Answer to Problem 1P
The critical path activities are as follows.
| Critical Paths |
| A-B-D-E-G-H-I-K |
| A-B-D-E-G-H-J-K |
| A-C-D-E-G-H-I-K |
| A-C-D-E-G-H-J-K |
Explanation of Solution
Using Excel spread sheet the network path is framed and its critical path is identified and shown below:
| Activity | Early Start Time | Early Finish Time |
| Duration | Late Start Time | Late Finish Time |
| Float/Slack |
Formula:
The identified network paths are shown below with duration:
| Paths | Duration |
| A-B-D-E-F-H-J-K | 23 |
| A-B-D-E-G-H-I-K | 26 |
| A-B-D-E-G-H-J-K | 26 |
| A-C-D-E-F-H-I-K | 23 |
| A-C-D-E-F-H-J-K | 23 |
| A-C-D-E-G-H-I-K | 26 |
| A-C-D-E-G-H-J-K | 26 |
The path with the longest duration is the critical path. Hence, the critical path activities are as follows.
| Critical Paths |
| A-B-D-E-G-H-I-K |
| A-B-D-E-G-H-J-K |
| A-C-D-E-G-H-I-K |
| A-C-D-E-G-H-J-K |
(c)
Expert Solution
To determine
The expected project duration time.
Explanation of Solution
Refer part (b)
The expected project duration time is shown below:
| Paths | Duration |
| A-B-D-E-G-H-I-K | 26 |
| A-B-D-E-G-H-J-K | 26 |
| A-C-D-E-G-H-I-K | 26 |
| A-C-D-E-G-H-J-K | 26 |

An ideal germanium pn junction diode has the following parameters: Na = 4 × 10¹5 cm³,
Na = 2 × 10¹7 cm³, D₂ = 48 cm²/s, D₁ = 90 cm²/s, Tpo = T = 2 × 10-6 s, and
A = 104 cm². Determine the diode current for (a) a forward-bias voltage of 0.25 V
and (b) a reverse-biased voltage of 0.25 V.
7.20 (a) The peak electric field in a reverse-biased silicon pn junction is |E|= 3 × 105 V/cm.
The doping concentrations are N = 4 × 10¹5 cm³ and N. = 4 × 107 cm³. Find the
magnitude of the reverse-biased voltage. (b) Repeat part (a) for N₁ = 4 × 10 16 cm³ and

Write a complete Java program named FindSumAndAverage that performs the following tasks in 2-D array:
Main Method:
a. The main() method asks the user to provide the dimension n for a square matrix. A square matrix has an equal number of rows and columns.
b. The main() method receives the value of n and calls the matrixSetUp() method that creates a square matrix of size n and populates it randomly with integers between 1 and 9.
c. The main method then calls another method named printMatrix() to display the matrix in a matrix format.
d. The main method also calls a method named findSumAndAverage() which:
• Receives the generated matrix as input.
• Calculates the sum of all elements in the matrix.
• Calculates the average value of the elements in the matrix.
• Stores these values (sum and average) in a single-dimensional array and returns this array
• e. The main method prints the sum and average based on the result returned from findSumAndAverage()).
Enter the dimension n for the square…
